Editor - Short Film
Sleep Awake Films
Los Angeles, CAThis is a Freelance Job
Sleepyhead Solutions is a fast-paced 5 page comedy, revolving around a neurotic protagonist who can't go to sleep! When they do go to sleep it's temporary so they live their life in a zombie sleepwalking state but with some slapstick comedy. It's less dialogue based and more visual to convey the comedy of operating on no sleep.
Just filming on the Alexa Arri by a high octane Film/TV veteran cinematographer with an incredibly funny cast and are looking for an editor to assemble a tight 5-6 minute cut with 90 minutes of footage to work from
Seeking an editor who has a taste for the absurdly comic, the existential weird and knows thriller elements to mold a tight 5-6 minute film that's all of the above. The footage looks incredible by a veteran cinematographer and the acting by a cast of 25 actors allows for a full world instead of a one note film. It's a pretty big scope for a short film. If you have the time and inclination to edit something cinematically weird I would love to see your reel or examples of your work. Everyone donated time, effort and energy to this no budget production due to it being a credit card movie so unfortunately we can't pay you if you're interested. But you'll have an amazing addition to your reel if you do decide to join our band of cinephiles.
Salary/Benefits
Compensation includes copy and credit. No pay unfortunately
